Oeko-Tex^® guarantees that textiles or fabrics contain no harmful substances. It's the first world-renowned accreditation intended for consumers that covers all fabrics and accessories from yarn and textiles to labels and every stage of processing. This international testing and certification system has a thorough procedure and is seen as proof of safety by the trade. It incorporates the most rigorous international regulations and pre-empts the risks and safety levels of substances that have not yet been regulated. To get the certification, an independent laboratory approved by Oeko-Tex^® runs checks on the production technique and tests fabrics and supplies. Trims and non-fabric accessories on the underwear (fastenings, hooks etc.) are also tested.
Once the lingerie has been approved as in line with specifications, the Oeko-Tex^® certification is valid for one year.
